2. Campgrounds
There are many different places to camp overnight:
- National Parks
- State Parks
- U. S. National Forest Campgrounds
- KOA Campgrounds
- Private Campgrounds
- or even in front of a Wal-Mart Store
For safety reasons Road Bear RV does not recommend “roadside” camping!
The National or State Parks and the Forest Campgrounds usually offer the most
beautiful and spacious camp- sites. There is often a wooden table and a fire ring
on each site. They also offer hiking trails.
There are also differences in campsites:
Full hook up sites - offer electricity, water and sewage
No hook up sites - just the site without any hook ups, usually the campground
has a dump station
